Bohannon rolls up impressive numbers
With his season and prep career nearing an end, Linn-Mar marksman Jordan Bohannon continues to set offensive standards in boys' high school basketball.
Bohannon exploded for 40 points and canned nine 3-point goals Saturday in the Lions' lopsided win over Ankeny Centennial. It was the second time in his career Bohannon put up those statistics, the other time coming earlier this season against Prairie.
Bohannon, a University of Iowa signee, leads Class 4A in three statistical categories: scoring average (25.5), 3-point goals (76) and free-throw percentage (94.5 percent).
Linn-Mar is the No. 1 team in 4A in those categories as well, with 72.6 points per game, 197 3-point goals and 79.3 free-throw percentage.
Bohannon has risen to No. 5 on the all-time Metro scoring charts, according to Metro Sports Report records. He has 1,482 points. Adam Spanich of Regis is No. 4 with 1,491. Bohannon already is the Metro's all-time leader in 3-point goals (245).
